Sadly I think, and for some time now, we are well past the point where political action needs to make sense either to the people involved or to the people outside. The message, the narrative, they’re whatever you want them to be. Whether that makes sense - much less where the truth lies - is irrelevant.

Or, you should do politics without promoting nazism and white supremacy on the platform that you solely bought to be able to do so.

Did you mean to respond to another comment? You’re in the thread about vandalizing left-leaning Tesla owners.

It's obviously being offered as justification for the anti-Tesla behavior (using the context of the GP in a tongue-in-cheek way). You may reasonably disagree, but the message wasn't unclear.

Was not obvious but could be inferred, which is why I asked. There were a few adjacent threads it made more sense in.

Well, is your claim that's it's isnt working? Perhaps after Tesla is bankrupt 6 years from now, tycoons with political ambitions will be less likely to adopt extremist political stances.

It doesn't need to make sense to you, personally, the HN commentariat, to be effective political action.
